The roses in the garden were blooming beautifully. The floral scent was refreshing, it made me feel relaxed. I walked through the rose bushes till I spotted Ayaan sitting in the garden hut. He was sitting curled up in the left corner on the round bench.
I didn't walk in, instead I stood there in the middle of the garden clearing.
"The roses have bloomed nicely." I said as I plucked one out. As he heard my voice his head shot up and turned to my direction. I didn't turn my face to him and smelled the caramel white rose in my hand.
He hesitated a bit, his eyes wavering a bit since he couldn't come to a decision but in the end mustered up some courage and walked out of the hut to me.
He tugged my shirt and I looked at him.
He gulped then brought up his hands to speak to me in sign language.
'I'm sorry. It's my fault you got hurt."
I shook my head, "It was my decision to send you along."
